@sarajade4 @nadalprop_ You're the one who brought it up first, moron.
31:29 h2h and that's non-negotiable!!!
24:22 at GS also!!!
And that's been proven!!
Bye, sucker!
Don't continue!

🎾 Last few men’s matches at this year’s French Open:

Berrettini vs Comesaña — 5h 13m
Cerúndolo vs de Jong — 6h 03m
Ruud vs Fonseca — 3h 58m
Faria vs Tiafoe — 4h 05m
Arnaldi vs Collignon — 5h 03m

Last few women’s matches:

Kostyuk vs Świątek — 1h 40m
Sabalenka vs Kasatkina — 1h 13m
Andreeva vs Teichmann — 1h 26m
Cîrstea vs Wang — 1h 57m

Men are playing 5-hour marathons.
Women are playing 90-minute matches.

Yet they receive the same prize money.

Apparently equality means never doing the maths, because on a per-hour basis, women are being paid significantly more.

[Tennis Poetry @NovakPoetry]

Oh, I did some digging! 🤓

They played 18 Grand Slam matches:
10 were at Roland Garros, only 8 at the other three Slams combined — a little odd, don't you think? 🤔

So Rafa won just 3 Grand Slam matches against Novak outside Roland Garros in 20 years.😂

Now let's examine those overall H2Hs: 31–29 and 24–22.😘

Novak Djokovic is the most misunderstood athlete of his generation.

Beyond the controversies. Beyond the media version.

What they never show you. 🧵

[Tennis Poetry @NovakPoetry]

@sarajade4 @nadalprop_ Personal? What's that mean?

[Tennis Poetry @NovakPoetry]

@sarajade4 @nadalprop_ Well, hello! 😇
24-22 🏆☺️💪

[Tennis Poetry @NovakPoetry]

Just hope we can check this again in the SF with Zverev.👀

[☁️☀️☁️ @SaphireTennis]

Mensik might have a clutch gene.

@nycsandygirl @nadalprop_ And my point is that there is no Djokovic's preferred surface, man - he is playing great on all surfaces, but Nadal is the GOAT on clay, that's all...

[Tennis Poetry @NovakPoetry]

@nycsandygirl @nadalprop_ Your “logic” is strange - but with my logic, ND would have 10 RG if there was no Claydal.

[Tennis Poetry @NovakPoetry]

@missfreyja2 Casper Ruud stoped being the runner-up a few years ago.
It will never happen again.

[Zain @ItzzZain10]

Most normal roland garros 2026 match

[Zain @ItzzZain10]

Streets won't forget ruud fonseca roland garros 2026 second set

[Tennis Poetry @NovakPoetry]

"Not so bad" level again.

What's next? Beating Mensik, Zverev, and the nothingburger finalist from the other half?

If he can maintain this level consistently, even Alcaraz and Sinner could be in trouble...

[☁️☀️☁️ @SaphireTennis]

Time for Fonseca-Ruud.

Show me that level again Phonysucka

@DavidCarrascoC8 @nadalprop_ "There is NO IF in tennis."
Rafael Nadal

[Tennis Poetry @NovakPoetry]

@Zwxsh Why not? He is in good shape.
This Wimbledon is probably his best chance.

[Tennis Poetry @NovakPoetry]

Your "point" is ridiculous, LMAO. Novak is only one year younger than Rafa, yet somehow he's the one who benefited from everyone else getting old?

Funny how this "everyone got old" narrative skips 2011, when Rafa was 24, and 2015, when he was 28 (and went 0–6 against Novak in big finals), while the supposedly "third guy" Novak was busy winning 3 Slams and 6 Masters titles. 😂
